La Mano Cornuda is the second studio album by the American rock and roll band Supersuckers. [5] [6] It was released on March 1, 1994 on Sub Pop. The title is Spanish for the horned hand , a reference to the hand sign often seen at rock and roll shows. [7]
The Encyclopedia of Popular Music deemed the album "hard rocking songs about hard drinking hard men." [4] Trouser Press wrote that "Conrad Uno’s production doesn’t raise [Jack] Endino’s blinding gleam, but the effect is salutary, allowing the band to indulge its naturally wanton slop-rock instincts to great hairy effect." [2] Eric Davidson, author of We Never Learn: The Gunk Punk Undergut, 1988-2001, considered it perhaps the band's "best all-around record." [8]

Hype! (1996) is a documentary directed by Doug Pray about the popularity of grunge rock in the early to mid-1990s United States. It incorporates interviews and rare concert footage to trace the development of the grunge scene from its early beginning in neighborhood basements to its emergence as an explosive pop culture phenomenon. Hype! attempts to dispel some of the myths of the genre promulgated by media hype by depicting the grunge subculture from the point of view of people who were active in the scene. The film generally portrays this mythos in a satirical way while acknowledging that it was media hype that helped propel some of these obscure bands to fame.
